Abstract

The study investigated the level of parents' assessment of the relevance of family development sessions (FDS) among 4P's beneficiaries in Lindero, Laua-an, Antique. It aimed to determine whether significant differences existed when grouped according to sex, age, and educational background. The study employed descriptive and inferential statistical methods to examine the level of assessment of parents on family development sessions in Lindero, Laua-an, Antique. Parents overwhelmingly reported a very positive assessment on family development session program, with an average rating indicating ""strongly agree on its usefulness and relevance. This positive view was consistent across sex, age, and educational background. The study used non-parametric tests such as the Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test for difference analysis. The finding: showed that there was no significant difference in parents' assessment when classified according to sex, age, and educational background. The FDS has effectively contributed to improving parenting practices, family relationships, financial management, and community involvement. Moreover, demographic factors did not significantly influence parental views on family development sessions (FDS). Thus, local government and other agencies should continue the regular conduct of FDS in ensuring the relevant and practical topics to enhance FDS implementation.
